Orbital-Resolved Partial Charge Transfer from the Methoxy Groups of Substituted Pyrenes in Complexes with Tetracyanoquinodimethane—A NEXAFS Study
2012
It is demonstrated that the near-edge X-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) provides a powerful local probe of functional groups in novel charge transfer (CT) compounds and their electronic properties. Microcrystals of tetra-/hexamethoxypyrene as donors with the strong acceptor tetracyano-p-quinodimethane (TMP/HMP-TCNQ) were grown by vapor diffusion. The oxygen and nitrogen K-edge spectra are spectroscopic fingerprints of the functional groups in the donor and acceptor moieties, respectively. The orbital selectivity of the NEXAFS pre-edge resonances allows us to precisely elucidate the participation of specific orbitals in the charge transfer process. Upon complex formation, the intensit…
Triple-resonance autoionization of uranium optimized for diode laser excitation
2007
Abstract The photoionization of uranium via three-step excitation has been optimized for isotope selective trace analysis. A search found 13 new J = 6, 7, and 8 odd-parity states in the 36,850–37,200 cm− 1 region that allow blue–red–red three-photon excitation at wavelengths favorable for commercial diode laser systems. From each of these 13 states, near-threshold autoionization spectra were recorded at a resolution of 3 × 10− 4 cm− 1. Some 30 even-parity autoionizing levels with J = 5 to 9 have also been observed and characterized. Comparison of the spectra allows J assignment for the new intermediate levels as well as selection of an optimized path for trace analysis. We show that, for a …
Spectral investigation of spin echo emission
1993
Abstract The spectral content of the echo radiation emitted after a two-pulse sequence is measured in a two-level spin system. The spectral profiles exhibit maxima and zeroes of spectral density depending on the exciting sequence parameters. A calculation based on a vectorial model relates the zeroes to those packets that happen to be transparent to the second (refocusing) pulse. Moreover we report on a new spectral narrowing effect which we tentatively ascribe to the instantaneous diffusion.
A statistical study of the additivities of substituent effects in the13C NMR chemical shifts of hydroxy- and chloro-substituted benzenes
1980
The 13C NMR spectra of six hydroxybenzenes, all chlorobenzenes, all chlorophenols and eight chlorocatechols are measured and assigned. The additivity of the substituent effects and the usefulness of some corrective parameters are studied with regression analysis. The order of the chemical shifts is most efficiently predicted by the simplest substituent effect model, containing only the direct effects of the substituents, although the 95% confidence limits of the calculated shifts are as high as 5.6 ppm. If the chemical shifts need to be predicted within the measuring errors (approximately 0.05–0.10 ppm, in the present data), the number of necessary corrections is very impractical. The corre…
Synthesis, Crystal Structure, and Properties of Multicomponent Bis(ethylenedithio)tetrathiafulvalene Charge-Transfer Salts of the [Mo3S7Br6]2- Cluster
2005
A new family of bis(ethylenedithio)tetrathiafulvalene (ET) radical salts has been prepared in the presence of a triangular molybdenum sulfide cluster of formula [Mo 3 S 7 Br 6 ] 2 - , which contains highly electrophilic axialsulfur atoms. A systematic change in the experimental conditions yields five different salts, namely (ETA)2(ET B )[Mo 3 S 7 Br 6 ] 2 . CH 2 Br 2 (1), (ETA)(ET B )Mo 3 S 7 Br 6 ].1.1CH 2 Br 2 (2), (ETA)(ETB)(ET C ){[Mo 3 S 7 Br 6 ]Br}.0.5C 2 H 4 Cl 2 (3), (ET)((n-Bu 4 )N)-[Mo 3 S 7 Br 6 ] (4), and (ET)(Ph4P)[Mo 3 S 7 Br 6 ].0.5CH 3 CN (5), where the ET subscript denotes crystallographically independent molecules. The five compounds have been structurally characterized, a…
Protonation of 3-aminopyrroles
1987
Abstract The protonation of 3-aminopyrroles has been investigated using H and 13C n.m.r. spectroscopy. The spectral data are compatible with predominant protonation of the amino group with no evidence for protonation of the pyrrole ring.
Über polygermane
1980
Abstract A complete series of 5-membered heterocycles (Ph 2 Ge) 4 X with X = O, S, Se and Te has been prepared and investigated by mass spectra, 13 C NMR spectra and vibrational spectra. The 13 C signals of the phenyl groups in the compounds (Ph 2 Ge) 4 X were compared with the related values in the homocycle (Ph 2 Ge) 5 . Frequency values for the symmetrical and asymmetrical stretching vibrations of the units GeGeGe and GeXGe are given. The crystal structure of the compound (Ph 2 Ge) 4 S has been determined and refined to a R of 0.051. The 5-membered ring Ge 4 S exhibits envelope conformation.
Synthesis and low-frequency vibrational spectra of some halo- and pseudohalo-diphenylantimonates(V)
1976
Abstract The syntheses of diphenylantimonates(V) of the type M(I) [PH 2 XbX 4 ] (M(I) = PH 4 As; X = F, Cl, Br, N 3 , NCS; X 4 = Cl 3 Br, Cl 3 N 3 ) are described. Far-Ir spectra of these compounds and of previously synthesized M(I) [Ph 2 SbCl 3 X] species (M(I) = Me 4 N; X = Cl, Br, N 3 ; M(I) = Ph 4 As; X = NCS) are reported. Raman spectra of tetrafluoro and tetrachloro salts are also given. Vibrational data are interpreted in terms of the presence of solid of trans -Ph 2 SbX 4 - species and assignments of skeletal modes are suggested.
Atomic and electronic structure of the corundum (0001) surface: comparison with surface spectroscopies
1997
Abstract The electronic structure and geometry of the Al-terminated corundum (0001) surface were studied using a slab model within the ab-initio Hartree-Fock technique. The distance between the top Al plane and the next O basal plane is found to be considerably reduced on relaxation (by 0.57 A, i.e. by 68% of the corresponding interlayer distance in the bulk). An interpretation of experimental photoelectron spectra (UPS He I) and metastable impact electron spectra (MIES) is given using the calculated total density of states of the slab and the projections to the atoms, atomic orbitals, and He 1s floating atomic orbital at different positions above the surface. Calculated projected densities…
<title>Spectroscopic investigation of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor for application in medical diagnosis</title>
1998
Native vesicles containing the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) prepared from the electric organ of the ray Torpedo marmorata were used to obtain fluorescence signal sin dependence of different concentrations of the local anesthetics procaine. Nonlinear concentration dependent spectral changes are found using ethidium bromide as a fluorescence marker. Structural changes are found for the proteins including the nAChR in the vesicles during immobilization onto surfaces such as IR transparent germanium (GE) crystal, Ge crystal coated with silver (Ag) cluster to use the SEIRA effect and/or crystals covered with a lipid subphase. A comparison between Ge and Ge coated with Ag (Ge/Ag) clus…
